Kansas already has a commitment from five-star power forward Silvio De Sousa as he made his decision in August. However, he could land on campus much sooner than his expected 2018 date. He is reportedly trying to get on campus by December by graduating early and getting clearance from the NCAA according to Gary Bedore of The Kansas City Star.

Looked into the Silvio De Sousa rumors. Yes I have confirmed he is thinking about enrolling at KU in December. As of right now, too early to tell if that can happen.

Little update on developing De Sousa story: His legal guardian tells me that Silvio would like to play for KU in December: "I think ultimately that is something he wants to do. I think we are heading in that direction."

How can they make that happen? NCAA must OK his core course requirements and he must get a certain score on standardized test. Guardian says he is hopeful decision would come sooner rather than later.
